Abstract
A percussive adjusting instrument is provided which includes a percussive instrument head and a traversing arm that couples to the percussive instrument head. The percussive instrument head is movable with respect to the traversing arm. A vertical arm supports the traversing arm. The vertical arm also pivots the traversing arm and the percussive instrument head about an axis. A pivot assembly allows movement of the vertical arm and the percussive instrument head.
Claims14
A percussive adjusting instrument comprising:
- a percussive instrument head;
- and
- a lift arm that supports the percussive instrument head;
- wherein the percussive instrument head is movable with respect to the lift arm about a Z-axis of a Cartesian coordinate system;
- wherein the lift arm is selectively movable vertically in an X-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system to move the percussive instrument head vertically in the X-axis;
- wherein the lift arm is selectively movable about a Y-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system to move the percussive instrument head about the Y-axis;
- and
- further comprising a pivot assembly that allows movement of the lift arm and the percussive instrument head about the Y-axis, wherein the pivot assembly includes a Y-axis laser.
A percussive adjusting instrument comprising:
- a percussive instrument head;
- a lift arm;
- wherein the lift arm includes a first arm segment and a second arm segment;
- wherein the second arm segment of the lift arm supports the percussive instrument head;
- wherein the percussive instrument head is movable with respect to the second arm segment of the lift arm about a Z-axis of a Cartesian coordinate system;
- wherein the second arm segment is extendable with respect to the first arm segment in an X-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system to move the percussive instrument head in the X-axis;
- wherein the second arm segment of the of the lift arm is selectively movable about a Y-axis of the Cartesian coordinate system to move the percussive instrument head about the Y-axis;
- and
- further comprising a pivot assembly that allows movement of the second arm segment of the lift arm and the percussive instrument head about the Y-axis, wherein the pivot assembly includes a Y-axis laser.
A percussive adjusting instrument comprising:
- a bed portion;
- a percussive instrument head;
- and
- a vertical arm that supports the percussive instrument head;
- wherein the vertical arm is coupled to the bed portion;
- wherein the percussive instrument head is movable about a first axis with respect to the vertical arm;
- wherein at least a second portion of the vertical support arm is movable about a second axis that is transverse to a longitudinal extent of at least a first portion of the vertical arm and transverse to the first axis about which the percussive instrument head is movable with respect to the vertical arm;
- and
- further comprising a pivot assembly that allows movement of the vertical arm and the percussive instrument head about the second axis, wherein the second axis is a Y-axis with respect to the first axis which is a Z-axis, and wherein the pivot assembly includes a Y-axis laser directed over the bed portion.
